"Pirates are back."
I'm not surprised considering how Netflix have increased their subscription costs.

"...NEAR the Horn of Africa.."
Southeast Asia: Hello there!

Funny how it fell off around the time Captain Phillips came out. They were probably like “We’ve been exposed with this documentary!”.

“I mapped almost every pirate attack near the Horn of Africa” I love the detail-oriented, data-based mindset,

Somali pirates were fishermen before their coastline became the dumping site for radioactive materials from western countries and china

Thank you for this dire warning.
I will do my best to not be a ship.

Could you do a short talking about the importance of the Baltimore port in regards to the world economy? Since it is closed for the foreseeable future?

😂😂they saw your video and felt self-conscious

[ShoummoIceman]

Recently they have captured a Bangladeshi flagged ship, MV Abdullah

[Kovacks-yh]

The terrifying thing is if Houthis and Somali rebels united. This would be the ultimate pirate union in the world.

It's mostly the Indian Navy at the rescue. The US can't decide what the hell they actually want to do.

[prathamesh]

Kudos to Indian Navy for their recent activity

[darshanpurohit]

The Indian Navy is in full action against pirates.

[Boobear]

Wait, what pirates do you think we were going to think of??

Johnny Depp's Pirates literally did the same thing. They just didn't talk about it in the movies. "Take what you want and give nothing back"

[aodhanwalsh]

Thanks for covering this - Tiocfaidh ar la 👌

I'm a Merchant Mariner from Bangladesh. MV Abdullah, a ship of of SR Shipping (subsidiary of KSRM Ltd, Bangladesh) got hijacked by the Somali Pirates in March 2024. They have demanded 5 million dollars or else... 23 personnel onboard the ship.

[terrychemo]

The Houthis are mostly targeting US and Israeli ships

[sandataonline]

for a little bit the frame cut of the first part of " hijacked off".

[Swayam_Bharat]

The recently done mission is solely done by indian navy....
